I sleep but I don't rest

Btw, I don't remember if I ever answered your Miranda Lambert question: First album Kerosene, despite its title track, does real well by the thoughtful story ballads, is spottier than the second, Crazy Ex-Girlfriend, which is great for its "Kerosense"-like incendiary drinking-and-driving fire-breathing tear-'em-up-and-blow-it-all-to-pieces-including-me provocations, and celt-goth-like invocations of doom ("Down"), much more consistent than the first but falls down a bit on the thoughtful ones that were the first album's strength.

I now have Crazy Ex-Girlfriend and will give it a proper listen later but OMG 'Gunpowder & Lead' is incredible.

Btw, I don't know if you saw when I posted about it, but when Xhuxk interviewed country singer and Miranda boyfriend Blake Shelton, Blake told him that Miranda considers Ashlee Simpson a great singer and songwriter.
